JPL has continued to achieve its historical level of success by developing and applying increasingly advanced technologies. These new technologies have, among other things, enabled us to visit other planets and given us the opportunity make observations of our own planet. As these technologies at JPL continue to advance, they will assist missions in meeting science objectives and further exploring the universe.
Deep Space Communications research focuses on optical communications, information processing, and the Deep Space Network
Research in distributed spacecraft technologies, including control, modeling, tethers, ranging, and thrusters.
Many planetary science missions must be prepared for encountering environments with very high and low temperatures, high radiation levels, and other extreme conditions.
